Abstract
The present invention is directed to a biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film with improved breakdown strength and to a capacitor comprising an insulation film comprising a layer of the biaxially oriented polypropylene film of the present invention. The present invention is further directed to a process for producing a biaxially oriented polypropylene film. Finally, the present invention is further directed to the use of a biaxially oriented polypropylene film of the present invention as layer of an insulation film of a capacitor. The BOPP film comprises a polypropylene composition, wherein the polypropylene composition comprises a high isotactic homopolymer of propylene and a polymeric α-nucleating agent. The BOPP film has a dielectric breakdown field strength Eb63.2 of at least 595 kV/mm. The process for producing a biaxially oriented polypropylene film comprises the steps of extruding a polypropylene composition to a flat film and orienting the flat film simultaneously in the machine direction and in the transverse direction.
